On the bull: Sit back and enjoy the ride

When the next market cycle ends (and it always does), would you rather be out six months early, or six months late? Chad Slater, Joint CIO at Morphic Asset Management, says some of the best returns come in the final throes of a cycle.

“At the end of a bubble, the market goes up 14% in the last six months, and it goes down 10% afterwards.”

The big advantage of being late, however, is bubbles are much easier to spot in hindsight. Rates have increased, the market is well off its highs, and the mood has shifted from euphoria to denial.
